It is a prenyl phenolic terpenoid. It is easily oxidized and has the property of overflowing with water vapor. It is soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents. Bakuchiol has no photosensitivity and has many benefits for the skin.

improve acne,
but also has a good relief effect on the inflammation after acne, and can play
a certain anti-inflammatory and reddishing effect.
2. Anti-aging.
Instead of retinol, psoralen provides a boost to collagen synthesis, improves
wrinkles and improves skin elasticity, and is milder than retinol.Acne
dispelling and anti-inflammatory Psoralen not only has the effect of inhibiting
bacteria and controlling oil to improve acne,but also has a good relief effect
on the inflammation after acne, and can play a certain anti-inflammatory and
reddishing effect.
3. Control sebum secretion.
Psoralen can inhibit sebum secretion by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase.
4. Antioxidant.
Psoralen has a good antioxidant effect on the oxidation of lipids on the skin
surface, which can improve the darkness of the skin,blackheads caused by the
oxidation of oil, pores, acne problems.
